Snappy Green
In this small format novelty board book we see Mr Croc drawing different objects. Children learn to relate colours to objects by seeing them through Mr Croc’s eyes. Cleverly, only one object of each colour is present in each double page spread. Flaps conceal the outcome of Mr Croc’s artistry which allows the reader to guess the object that is being drawn. Previous Mr Croc stories have finished with Mr Croc trying to eat the reader. This is abandoned in Snappy Green in favour of a peek-a-boo pop-up.
